Nevil is a masculine name with medieval English origins, derived from the Norman French name Néville, which referred to a place meaning "new town" or "new village." The name carries an air of sophistication and old-world charm, reminiscent of English aristocracy and heritage. Nevil was moderately popular in Britain during the early 20th century but has become quite uncommon in recent decades. Literary and historical associations include figures like Nevil Shute, the renowned British novelist. Often confused with the more common spelling Neville, the single-L version Nevil offers a slightly more streamlined look while maintaining the same pronunciation. The name conveys intelligence and refinement, with a classic quality that stands apart from trendier modern names.
